Neonatal bacterial meningitis is difficult to diagnose at the onset,with atypical symptoms and high mortality,those who survive would have neurological complications.Early diagnosis and standard treatment are very crucial.European Society for Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases published a guideline to the diagnosis and treatment of acute bacterial meningitis.In combination with the latest research results and the guideline,this article aims to provide guidance in diagnosis and treatment of neonatal bacterial meningitis.

Accurate preoperative staging is imperative in the treatment of gastric cancer since diseases in different stages mandate different management strategies. Multi-disciplinary therapy is important for gastric cancer. Endoscopic treatment has become the preferred treatment for patients with early gastric cancer. However, only when multiple disciplines is involved in the decision-making process, appropriate patients can be selected and benefit from the minimally invasive treatment. In China, 90% of gastric cancers are at advanced stage at diagnosis, which are associated with worse prognosis compared to early gastric cancer. The optimal treatment depends on the multi-disciplinary therapy including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and molecular targeted therapy.

Objective To screen the conservative,stable and specific DNA signature sequence in the plasmid of Yersinia pestis.Methods Specific validation trials and stability of the qualification test were carried out to 40 strains of Yersinia pestis,47 strains of non-Yersinia pestis of home and wild types of rodent in Yunnan,by using 32 DNA sequences derived from Yersinia pestis in the plasmid and conventional PCR technology,and Yersinia pestis vaccine strain EV76 as a positive control.Results Four pairs of relatively conservative,stable and specific DNA marker genes were screened:YPMT1.05c,YPMT1.03c,YPMT1.42 and YPMT1.04c.Conclusions The 4 pairs of Yersinia pestis DNA signature sequences can be used for rapid diagnosis of plague.

Objective To investigate the effect of Yishen-Daotan decoction on TCM syndrome elements of infertility caused by kidney deficiency and phlegm stagnant type polycystic ovary syndrome.Methods 60 patients of kidney deficiency and phlegm stagnant type polycystic ovarian syndrome infertilities were administrated with modified Yishen-Daotan decoction for 3 months and the changes of TCM syndrome elements,menstrual cycle and serum sex hormone were compared before and after the treatment.Results ① TCM syndrome elements had a statistical changes after the treatment compared with those before the treatment(t=62.79,P＜0.01).②menstrual cycle showed statistical difference after the treatment compared with that before the treatment,(x2=21.64,P＜0.01).③Serum FSH,E2 were increased,while LH,LH/FSH and T were decreased after the treatment,showing a significant difference compared with those before the treatment (t=2.67,P＜0.05).④The total effective rate was 91.67％ and pregnancy rate was 30％.Conclusion Yishen-Daotan decoction significantly improve clinical symptoms in patients with kidney deficiency and phlegm stagnant type PCOS infertility.

Objective To study the changes of platelet, endothelial functions and fibrinolytic activity of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients before and after PTCA Methods 26 negative patients of coronary angiocardiography (CAG) serving as negative control and 16 positive ones of CAG but unsuitable for PTCA as positive control, we observed the dynamic changes of plasma P selectin? thrombomodulin and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 of 24 CAD patients before and after PTCA Results In PTCA group, the levels of plasma Ps and TM were higher 5 min after PTCA than those before PTCA ( P

Objective To improve the recognition of dermatomyositis (DM) complicated with intracranial neoplasma and to explore its pathogenesis aimed to collect the experience of diagnosis and treatment. Methods Twelve DM patients complicated with intracranial neoplasma were analysed and the literature of recent 23 years were reviewed. Results DM complicated with intracranial neoplasma was associated with the p53 genic mutation and it was rare because of blood-brain barrier and scanty of lymphocytes in brain tissue. Correct diagnosis depended on clinical manifestations and the computerized tomography or the magnetic resonance imaging of brain. Glucocorticoid was the first choice treatment.However, removal the neoplasma was necessary. Conclusion DM complicated with intracranial neoplasma is rare. Clinicians should make the diagnosis promptly and chosen the appropriate treatment.
